This theory is named general relativity . Kirillov, Lectures on tensor categories and modular functors, AMS, University Lecture Series, (2000) (web). Astronomers have obtained the most compelling evidence yet that massive objects dramatically warp space–time, as predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity.

Odintsov, “Where new gravitational physics comes fromml: M-theory?” Physics Letters B, vol. That the Global Positioning System undercuts general relativity. According to Einstein, the Earth's gravity warps spacetime like a bowling ball on a trampoline. Branes (mathematical aspects) . 2 ,” General Relativity and Gravitation, vol. Fig b.2 - A symmetric spherical body on a two-dimensional grid that illustrates the space-time universe. They developed a general scheme for cosmological reconstruction of modified gravity in terms of red-shift without using an auxiliary scalar in intermediate calculations. €�The space-time around Earth appears to be distorted just as general relativity predicts,” says Stanford University physicist Francis Everitt, principal investigator of the Gravity Probe B mission. However, we are still testing out all its predictions. TVF's Speed of Gravity paper undercuts special relativity. IT TOOK FIVE DECADES from conception to results, but finally NASA's Gravity Probe B has confirmed two cherished predictions of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. NASA has just announced that Einstein's theory of gravity, also known as the General Theory of Relativity, has been verified in two ways by its Gravity Probe-B (GP-B) with astonishing accuracy [1]. Bethell made three claims in this 1999 article, using TVF as his primary source: A. Despite this setback, in 2007 the Gravity Probe B team confirmed one prediction of general relativity.
